DaHighLife: Ah, you are that type. I am not going to engage in semantic debates with you. I have more productive uses for my time.
This was the post upon which this argument hinged.
Please provide evidence supporting your claim that she 'admitted fraud' and took 'a significant amount of money from her campaign'.
It appears you may have struggled to comprehend the quotation you referenced. Allow me to offer clarification:
Imagine transforming a somewhat inarticulate verbal retort into an elaborate illegal campaign fraud scheme. Alternatively, contemplate the notion of permitting an online influencer [probably a right wing one] to persuade you into believing she committed an illegal campaign conspiracy based on 1 somewhat inarticulate phrase. Imagine an individual who engages in such actions, thereby squandering everyone's time due to an inability to concede their error. Does this behavior align with the behavior of a rational, educated person? She took out her retirement out of the bank and kept the cash home to reimburse her lover. So far so good. Trump did not use campaign money to reimburse Cohen yet he is overcharged by Alvin Bragg. Months after the feds saw no reason to press charges. Is there any evidence she presented about withdrawing her money. Fani uses Actblue to fundraise. Im pretty sure some money to her is dark money. A rich person/org dumps money to act blue. They spread it to recepients in small donations impersonating small donors who are not aware . |

Obrigardo: But you find it appropriate that this sexual assaulter and rapist become president of the most powerful country on Earth, again. You never revealed this side of your awareness when you always told us that the Criminal did nothing wrong.
This is a drastic change in your maga ideology, and bruh, it's gonna get worse for you. You never sounded like this years, even months back.
This was the exact path that happened to me until I realized christo fascism conspiracy theories were damaging my health and mental well being.
You've always held the Criminal to a higher standard that even now you think he is more righteous than the Catholic President Biden who's been with one woman for decades after his first wife passed on.
You on the path to enlightenment, just keep your thinking hat on, not the tin-foil. There is no change in my opinion of him. I have stated that previously. Those who voted for him weren't voting fora saint , they know him very well. His policies are what people want. Is it wrong to want industries to go back to America. To curtail globalists efforts, to frack baby frack. to drain the swamp, to control illegal immigration, nominate conservative justices, help veterans, stop the wars and bring the boys back home, etc. That's what people wanted and still do. |

JessicaRabbit: This is a loaded question proceeding from a simplistic characterization of Letitia's investigation. She did not use tax assessment to evaluate the value of Trump properties, she used it to compare the value of Trump properties with the value of similar properties in the same area. She did this to show that there was a significant discrepancy between the values that Trump reported to the tax authorities and the values that he reported to the banks. This discrepancy suggests that he either inflated or deflated the value of his properties depending on his interests, which could amount to fraud. You're also ignoring the fact that Letitia did not rely solely on tax assessment, she also used other sources of information, such as appraisals, financial statements, loan documents, and expert opinions to corroborate and cross-check the data and provide a more comprehensive picture of the value of Trump properties. Is the IRS complaining. Trump was s loud critic of Obama, being the public face of the birther movement. Let's not forget it's Hillary who started it but Trump ended it. Obama being the vindictive character would have unleashed Loise Lerner on him if there was a "there there'". Valuation again. The loan request form has a different value thsn the tax returns. |

DaHighLife: Valid points indeed, but I'd exercise caution regarding the claims made by the Trump team regarding the 'cell phone data.' They have previously asserted claims in signed affidavits, such as the assertion that Fanni was residing with Wade, which ultimately proved to be false. The specifics of the cell phone data remain unclear; we lack information on what data they possess, or whether it was obtained legally.
The manner in which they purportedly obtained personal cell phone information from not only an individual but also the prosecutor handling their case, without a court-approved subpoena and without the individual's knowledge, is striking. And to have it all done in less than 2 weeks is even more striking.
Furthermore, the timing of the filing on a Friday seems calculated to influence a potential jury pool, while placing the prosecutor in a disadvantaged position to respond promptly. Additionally, the subsequent amendment to the filing—from initially stating 12,000 texts to now referring to 12,000 interactions—raises more suspicions.
This filing raises red flags. I said earlier today that if it was the FBI, they eould indict the witness who claimed Wade and Fani were an item by 2019. The FBI would also discredit the data and declare it inadmissible. That aside, the analyst used a tool that police use routinely. Callhawk. You can look it up. If the data analysis is correct, Fani and Wade lied. Families have been bankrupted by fbi for lying. Since you are so concerned about jury pool, why didn't you complain about Fani going to a BLM affiliated church and saying they are going after her and her lead Inquisitor because they are black. They didn't go after the other two white persecuters. That's poisoning the jury pool. |

JessicaRabbit: You fail to acknowledge the difference in context, consent, and relevance when comparing Trump's photos with women to Carroll's photo with him. This is another false equivocation fallacy you've committed here. Trump denied ever meeting Carroll, and so her photo with him was intended to at least prove that she knew Trump personally, and that he had access to her. You should be crafting fiction, not debating facts. Even a soggy tissue offers more resistance than your current position. Perhaps when you finally grow the balls to answer these questions in good faith.....
.....you'll finally come to the realization that you have been on a wild goose chase as far as this topic is concerned. There are many men who don't remember women they have slept with. There are many women who don't remember all the men they have slept with Trump owned Miss World franchise, you can be sure thousands of ladies wanted to know him personally. He also had casino, hosted bouts and endless parties. At school a former classmate of his said he always showed up with different girls every week. His 'body' count must be humongous, I would not be surprised his "conquests ' can circle the earth.Figuratively. I don't hold Trump as my moral compass. |

What the fúck are you arguing about? That the case should be dismissed because Fani was fúcking her co-worker?

JessicaRabbit: Stop deflecting. You can't dodge a bullet by shooting at others. You think calling Wade and Willis liars, cheaters, or democrats will make Trump look innocent? That's like saying a bank robber is not guilty because the victim was rude, or the security guard was lazy. If it weren't for your selective memory, you would realize that the case against Trump for election interference in Georgia is drastically different from the one against Carroll for defamation in New York, with different standards of proof, given that they are separate legal matters. Yes, Carroll accused Trump of raping her in the 1990s, but she has provided corroborating evidence, such as a dress with his DNA, two witnesses who heard her story at the time, and a photograph of them together. You are just a joke -- and a dry one, no less. There is a dress with his DNA evidence? It must be the one NASA went to look for up there on the moon's surface. Two witnesses who couldn't remember the year also. Photograph? AAh Trump has a Gazillion photos with women. And he had said previously that women can let him grab them by the pussy. Whoa. Such watertight evidence. With Fani evidence should be foolproof . What a liar.

Fani was the sole appointing authority of the special prosecutors, she has a say in how much they bill and she personally approves the invoices. By inference If she wanted a cruise to Cuba or a pink dress or some expensive wine, Wade would never say there is no money for that. |

JessicaRabbit: I'm impressed by your ability to write so much without saying anything at all. Did you forget the "evidence" chapter in your handbook on righteous indignation? The cellphone data showing that Wade visited Willis' home 35 times in 2021, does not prove that they lied about when their affair started or that it affected their professional judgment. It's still within the realm of speculation, as far as legal processes are concerned. You really don't have any idea how this shit works, do you? You also mentioned that they profited from the prosecution, without evidence no less! You just shamelessly speculated that Willis reimbursed Wade in cash for his business expenses, which were allegedly used to fund their personal trips and gifts. However, this is not a solid basis for accusing them of fraud or corruption. Also, you ignore the fact that Wade's fees were approved by the state attorney general's office and that he has submitted detailed invoices and receipts for his work. Let's hold off on the jail sentences for Willis and Wade until we have something more substantial than feelings to go on, shall we?
The couple has already admitted to their affair and have apologized for it, but have denied that it influenced their decision to pursue the case against Trump. That's as far as we know. If you are going to suggest any sort of foul play, then the burden is on you to present the conclusive evidence. For now, your objections have just been a complete and utter waste of time and effort. So you can keep crying about the case until the cows come home, the fact remains that there is no evidence of any improper influence or interference from the federal government or any other party. There is no law that prevents lovers from working in the same office..There are three issues in the case. Did Fani and Wade lie under oath a to when their affair begun? Did Fani choose her lover who has never prosecuted a felony case over the more experienced attorneys , initially paying him a higher rate than the other two? With regards to cash reimbursements, Is Fani lying because as it is , She and Wade enjoyed the high life with proceeds of the $250 an hour billing that Fani approved.He used his business credit card which makes it a business expense Unless he got refunded and he banked the money , then Wade implicitly cheated on his taxes. There are other issues wrt coordinating with the DOJ, WH and Jackboot that are not yet under scrutiny. With Trump its she said , so it's true. With Fani you need evidence of when they started screwing. Video, audio, eye witness of subject A fucking subject B or photos. Maybe you will also demand DNA of the semen collected from her vagina. That's how high you set the bar for her.When it comes to Jean Carroll her word is enough. When there are 2000 calls exchanged , 12000 text messages, a close friend of Fani saying they were into it back in 2019 and Wade lying about the number of booty calls he made. You really are something. People have been charged and jailed for lying to Congress and to FBI. How about lying under oath? Nothing to see because it's a democrat? There is a question of whether she fired some Whistleblower who claimed she was diverting funds (494k?) from other budgets to this investigation. Further Wade's professional rates by other Georgia attorneys should have been $100 -150 an hour. Fani offered the special prosecutors the maximum rate she is allowed. |

JessicaRabbit: It's unfortunate that you weren't paying attention. Casually name-dropping irrelevant and misleading terms that the article used like recourse, non-recourse, and disgorgement, serve no further purpose than wilful obfuscation. Stop trying to be clever by half. Recourse and non-recourse are types of loans that differ in how the lender can recover the debt from the borrower in case of default. Disgorgement is a legal remedy that requires the wrongdoer to return the profits obtained from illegal or unethical conduct. These terms have NOTHING to do with Judge Engoron's ruling, which was based on the New York Martin Act, a law that prohibits fraud and deception in the offer and sale of securities. Trump's recourse loans were not based on his actual risk, but on his false representations of his wealth and creditworthiness. This is just another cheap and misleading rhetoric from you. Recourse is well explained in that article. Non recourse loan would be where your liability stops at the assets offered. Recourse is where a party can go after other assets if the full amount is not enough to cover the loaned money. The interest charged on a recourse loan is much higher than of a non recourse loan as I understood Letitia argued Trump obtained non recourse loans because he overvalued the worth. The disgorgement is the difference he would have paid had the loans been recourse. This is wrong because the banks did not issue non recourse loans based on what he said the assets were worth. They did their own assessment an determined that they would grant him non recourse loans based on their own figures. Going back to Engoron decision the difference between what he would have been offered by banks is actually Zero. Because they used their assessment values and NOT his values. That's what I got from the article, stop playing clever. Going ahead Engoron went on to fine him from the profit he made on that DC hotel. He argued the profit made was illegal because it was a non-recourse loan. He also fined his children from their share of that profit. Disgusting of Engoron.The law is meant to protect the consumer not the lender, which is why this case falls flat. It stems from ulterior motives. I have not read the judgement, Your biased anti Trump opinion shapers have read it for you.I may have mixed up recourse and non recourse interests , I'm writing in a hurry and I reserve the right to update this post. |

Trump team filed motion in Georgia detailing geolocation data of Fani Willis boyfriend Nathan Wade cellphone. Both said under oath they begun the affair long after she appointed him as the lead Inquisitor. Wade claimed to have visited her home 10 times only. A wiitness testified she was sure they had a thing going back 2019.
Cellphone data shows he visited her at least 35 times in 2021. Some visits were booty calls, where he spent the night. In 2021, they texted 12000 times and exchanged 2000 calls.
Conclusion. Both lied under oath. Have to be removed from the case.They need to be disbarred and jailed yesterday. In 2021 Fani Willis said she would fire staff members having interoffice affairs. She promised to restore integrity to the office Another charge. Did she profit from payments she personally approved ? She claims to have reimbursed Wade in cash. In her other cash reimbursements she used an app CashApp which has a money trail. With Wade she used cash.Wade has no records where he banked the cash to offset the business expenses he incurred taking Fani to cruises, shopping, buying dinners and flowers etc. These were business deductible expenses.😄😄😄😄 She got laid, he got paid. With that kind of cash this brother should have been dating hot girls, not some divorcee with control of his income. I could kick him if I met him.
Trump has those call records, I bet there are calls to White House, DOJ and Jack Smith who are coordinating the Trump take down efforts.
dahighlife and Jessicarabbit Spin this development. I think if this case was with the FBI they would indict the witness for telling lies and close down the Telco operator who provided the data while declaring the data inadmissible.

JessicaRabbit: Just a heads up -- some, actually most of them, might require actual thinking.
I prefer to call it "nuanced understanding".
Y
Flawed analogy. Trump's property that he sold in 2008 was a mansion on a beachfront lot, while Mar-a-Lago is a club resort on a larger inland lot. The demand and supply for these properties are not the same, and neither are the factors that affect their values. For example, beachfront properties are more scarce and desirable than inland properties, and club resorts have different income and expense streams than residential properties. Therefore, the value of one property cannot be inferred from the value of another property, unless they are very similar and comparable.
Maybe it isn't, but it seems to be beyond your current grasp of the situation.
Valuation isn't exactly rocket science, but if you're struggling, I'm sure you can find places online to point you towards some beginner resources.
Oh really? And what about accessibility, land use, physical attributes, location, market conditions etc, hmm? Can you see how evident your lack of knowledge on this topic is?
Well, I'm not surprised that you can NOT provide any evidence or data to support the claim that recent sales of other properties in the vicinity have increased the value of Mar-a-Lago. You can only offer mere assertions without proof.
And you expect reasonable people here to take you seriously? LOL.
Perhaps you're just not used to encountering well-written content. Don't worry, it's a rare find these days, I've observed personally. Be adviced that land values depend highly on recent sales of nearby pieces/tracts of land.Try and figure out why. All those factors you mentioned determine why any land sale within the general area took place. If someone bought some land that had oil, then it affects every other sale nearby for instance.Just common sense. A land valuer/ property agent can clarify that for you.
Jackson, chief property appraiser for Palm Beach County, told Newsweek that its assessments were "based on assessments for tax purposes only and not for financing or...for a lending institution." He said that Mar-a-Lago was among nine clubs in the county that were appraised on their net operating income. "We look at their memberships—the number of members—their annual membership dues, the expenses that it costs to run the facility, and then we trade a capitalization rate, which includes the tax rate for that jurisdiction," Jackson explained.
"We don't look at that property any differently than we do any properties here in Palm Beach County; they're all assessed equitably and fairly...regardless of who's name is on the property," he added.
Jackson declined to comment on the reaction of Trump and his family to the assessment but said: "Everyone has an opinion. We have an opinion, and our values are set on January 1 of each calendar year and it's only for assessment purposes—not for reappraisals or private appraisals that someone would want to determine what their property is 5How much would be Michael Jordan's sneakers tax be, were they displayed in their own museum? How much loan would a bank extend to this museum? Same amount as the tax valuation, no? You really tie yourself up in knots. |

JessicaRabbit: You're drowning in a puddle of ignorance, and I'm tired of playing the teacher and throwing you lifelines. Why must we always hold a kindergarten lesson in your favor, and allow you come to predictable conclusions before you can join a simple conversation? You're a lost cause and a bore.
I'm still waiting for answers to these questions. I'll come to those questions. Later. Let's go on with your fuzzy logic in valuations. In 2008 Trump sold a property 6.2 acres for $95m MAL is on 17 acres. Later that property was demolished, subdivided into 3 pieces that in total sold for $108m in 2016. I posed this question some year ago. If a university was to build a campus next to your village plot, the plots value would rise. If you are to build hostels on your plot, you'd apply for a larger amount of loan than a similar undeveloped property. But you would not use that value for paying land rates. Its not rocket science. You want to teach me valuation seriously. Are you aware that land value is very much based on recent sales of other properties within the vicinity. By the way are you using chatgpt as your source? The other day I wondered whether you are writing love letters. The kind of sweet responses from Generative AI.

JessicaRabbit: Normally, I'd be explaining to you how valuations were based on its annual net operating income as a club and not on its resale value as a home or its reconstruction cost, but as history has shown repeatedly on this thread, it wouldn't matter to a dumbo with the IQ of a shoelace. If truly you're honest with yourself, or had the tiniest molecule of self-awareness, you'd have subtly noticed how your irrelevant link does absolutely nothing to dispute the fact that Trump DID inflate the value of his resort. So before we get lost in the Bermuda Triangle of tangents you keep constructing, let's circle back to those pesky questions you've been tap-dancing around like a mime lost in a disco: You are shameless. Since when do prime real estate properties lose value over time? Especially after massive uplifts. How did he inflate Mar a Lago. If he was to list it now how much would he get, Mr Ignorant. |

Obrigardo: When I say maga cultists are the dumbest people on Earth, it is not an Insult but a fact.
For example, we were all witnesses to basilico loco's rampage against the covid vaccine because chip implants and freedumb!
But this same basilico dude is eerily silent about elon dusk's neurallink - a real chip implants to the spine and brain which gives elon full tracking control of the idiots who wear his trash. Stop lying. I've never said vaccines contain any chips or traceable compounds. I was against the vax because of the lies behind it, forcing people to have it. Preventing cheap drugs like Ivermectin from prescription. Big pharma made billions which would not been possible had other drugs now approved been rejected then. Elon Musk with his neural link . That's his own problem. If anyone wants an implant let them get it, I'm totally against neural implants. |
